Editor's note: Take a look back into the archives of The Dallas Morning News.

Where could a professional woman go to meet a guy before smartphones and speed dating? In June of 1960, the answer was clear: the intersection of Main and Akard in downtown Dallas. As this June 17 article notes, women came for culture and work but stayed for a ring.

Still waiting for your Mr. (or Miss) Right? Try tossing a penny into the Pegasus Park fountain and see if the intersection still has its magic.
